Maybe useful to post it to: https://mojang.atlassian.net/browse/MC

Or give @Jessenic a shout?

Sometimes the automated windows 8 drivers are a little messed up. You may try going to your drivers manufacture website to get drivers directly from there. From looking at your error code it looks like its AMD (No idea what model).
